"What??." She asked.
"I'll tell you soon but you'd promise to agree." He grinned at her innocent face.
"Okay, fine, I promise just please come with me."
"I'll think about it."
"But you just made me promise to do whatever you ask." She looked like she would cry.
"Okay, okay, I'll be there with you alright?." He tilted his head and she nodded.
"I..wanted to ask something."
"Ask." He said.
"You never told you the kind of business you're into."
He stood silent for a while. "You want to know?."he tucked her hair behind her ear as she nodded.
"I kill for a living." He whispered.
"That's not true." She pushed his chest.
"Okay, what then?."
"I don't really know and that's why I asked, so tell me." She wrapped her arms around his waist looking up at his face.
"I'll tell you when the time is right Sugar bear." He carried her in his arms with her legs wrapped around his waist and her arms around his neck.
"Why don't you want me to turn bad? Is that a bad thing?." She asked and Arnold stared at her blankly.
"Only bad people turn bad and you are ain't bad, are you?." He raised his brow and she nodded.
"You are not ready yet Jenna."
"Ready for what?" She asked.
"You won't understand." He halted.
"S*x?." She said and he looked at her in shock not knowing what to say.
"Tell me.." she acted like a baby.
"Okay, yes, that, you're still untouched remember? So keep that for your Prince Charming." He forced a smile and kept her on the bed, it got her thinking.
"What is it?." He asked after long minutes of studying her face.
"You.." she halted.
"I..?" He replied.
"It's nothing but hey I'm Your Girlfriend and it's time we start doing what couples do." She frowned.
Arnold stared at her, in his eyes she was like a little boss baby trying to make orders.
"Not yet madam." He grinned.
"And why?," her heart was beating fast as he lowered his eyes to look at her.
"Cause you are not for me Jenna." He moved away from her and sat at the edge of the bed.
"I.." she didn't just know what to say, she was hurt but why want he seeing that? Why can't he see that he was hurting her so much?.
" I'm scared to hurt you." He looked away from her face. "You've got no idea of who I am, wish you were never caught up with me at the first place."
"What are you saying Arnold." She crawled to him and hugged him from behind, placing her head on his back.
"You should never have met me, this was not supposed to happen, you.." he halted and just then she kissed him, shutting him up. He just stared at her for a moment, then he kissed her back.
"I don't want to ever leave you Arnold, and I know you'd never hurt me." She said breathlessly as she kissed him again.
"Jenna.." he called.
"No Arnold." She said with hushed voice.
"Just kiss me and say nothing more." She brought his face to hers and kissed him.
******
Soon she slept, he tucked her properly in bed and left the room.
He walked to the stairs when he heard manly voices, it was Brett and Damien, it looked like they were talking about something and didn't want Arnold to know.
"What's going on here?." He descended from the stairs.
The two men looked at themselves then turned to Arnold.
"The Vin Lord was just outside the mansion." Brett said pacing back and forth.
"What?" Arnold was taken aback at that moment. He couldn't believe what he was hearing right now.
He looked upstairs to check if Jenna was around, then he turned back to the men.
"Keep your voice down, she might hear you."
The men looked at him confusingly, they didn't think that he'd care about her that way. Why does he suddenly care about a lady?? He never cared for anyone, he always let people think whatever they wanted to, so why did he cared if she heard their conversation?.
"What's really going on with you Arnold??." Damien asked.
"What do you mean?"
"Why do you suddenly care about her so much?? Is that out of pity? Or..you.." Damien halted when Arnold called him off.
"I just want to care for her, she at least deserves that. I just need to get her out of my life and this house but I don't know how to cause I don't want to hurt her." He looked away from them.
"She's not save here, you know what would happen if The Vin Lord happens to know about her, can't believe he's alive." Brett cut in.
"You just need to get her far away from here as possible, he spares no one, he wouldn't spare Your Girlfriend either." Damien said. He already saw Jenna special to Arnold cause he had been behaving differently since she arrived.
"I would never let anything happen to her, you just do your best to protect her while at home and at work, no harm must come to her." Arnold glared.
"And what do we look like? Your servant?." Brett creased his brows.
"No harm must come to that girl Brett, otherwise you know what would happen."
"Relax Arnold. It's still a good thing, we should just get this over and done with, I'm tired of staying in this place already." Damien said in disgust.
"I need more time!. So don't you dare say that." Arnold pinned Damien to the wall, holding the collar of his shirt.
"The servants might see you Arnold." Brett pulled Arnold's hands away, letting Damien down to his feet.
Damien glared angrily at him and walked out of the room leaving Brett with Arnold.
"Fighting him won't solve the issue Arnold, now The Vin Lord is here, what do we do??."
"We just can't give her out Brett, we can't!."
They heard footsteps descending the stairs, and they slowly turned to see Jenna standing there looking straight at them.
Brett left immediately and Arnold slowly walked up the stairs to meet her.
"What were you guys talking about? And who is The Vin Lord?." She asked looking scared cause they way the men talked about it sounded like they were all in danger.
"It's..its..why don't you go to bed?." He asked wondering why she came here.
"I came looking for you." She hugged him.
"Let's go back inside." He took her in.
